Metropolitan Police Another Metropolitan Police 1911 Coronation medal

[Noor]

Hi all,

Here is another Police 1911 Coronation medal that I would like to check out with the wise guys - PC W.KERR. Is it too common name or possible narrow down the owner?

Thanking you in advance,

Timo

You are in luck Timo

There was actually only one PC W Kerr who earned the Met 1911 Coronation Police Medal - PC William Edward Kerr who had the Warrant Number 94803 and joined 29/07/1907 as a PC in W Division (Clapham) and left 06/11/1931 as a PC serving in L Division (Lambeth). He was actually pensioned out on health grounds (before completing 25 years service).

I have located his service sheet, attestation and discharge register entries and will forward them to you

Thank you very much again! Ah, look at that - a police constable from Tipperary!
